In parts of Europe, Africa, and the Middle East there has been an uprising in protests and terrorist attacks by Islamic extremists. Reports say this is due in part to the Charlie Hebdo edition that came out after the terrorist attack on their office last week. The magazine cover was an illustration of Muhammad, the very offense that the terrorists claimed they attacked the office for in the first place. In Europe the military has started to send troops to protect target locations like Jewish sites and schools, as well as UN quarters and foreign embassies. Please keep all of these regions in your prayers. Pray for God’s protection on all those who would be targeted, Jews, Christians, and westerners alike.
